Can a K-1 visa status holder or an indiv. in AOS donate (sell) his/her plasma as a source of income?

I looked online and donating plasma is taxable income (yahoo answers). Plasma donating center's require only a proof of residency (that one lives in the vacinity,i.e. DL/banking statement), a SSN and proof of identity (passport/DL) (.

Has anyone successfully sold their plasma before receiving their EAD?

Is it worth chancing?

All you can do, is to go to the center and try. You won't be employed, so the EAD is not applicable.
